toronto condos: Market Still Booming Past Spring - 07/01/09 10:00 AM
I can always tell when a sellers' market is upon us. When a condo has just been put on the market, and that same day I'm lining up in the hallway with my clients, along with other agents and their clients, trying to get in to show the unit. Multiple offers, buyers bidding irrationally, and negotiations are becoming more infrequent. A tough market for buyers, but the sellers are now back in the game. Consumer confidence is back up, and it looks like it's going to be a busy Summer for me. Usually in the Summer, the market tends to cool a little, but it is … (0 comments)

toronto condos: Prices Going Up In Toronto - 02/20/09 07:21 PM
I think I should share the recent statistics, that were recently presented to me by my Broker. In January 2008, the average sale price for our Brokerage's listings was $387,000. The average sale price this January was $412,000. Even though the media will have you believe that prices are still down, you can see that is not the case.
This statistic is important, as my Brokerage, RE/MAX Hallmark Realty Ltd. has completed the most transactions in Toronto in the past few years. I believe that gives this statistic credibility.
So don't believe everything you see on TV or read in the newspaper. GTA averages aren't a … (0 comments)

toronto condos: No Line-ups For Me! (Great Article By Ken McLachlan) - 12/25/08 07:22 AM
I just read a great article from my Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Hallmark Realty, that sums up our current market perfectly.
"BUY when most are selling and SELL when most are buying. Simple words to live our financial lives by. In spite of being familiar with these words, many people get caught up in the frenzy of a group with their actions. Years ago I recall my first experience with group dynamics when buying a commodity. In this memory, it was GOLD. In the early 80's I remember seeing people lining up on Bloor Street in downtown Toronto to purchase GOLD. As … (1 comments)

toronto condos: Important Message - 12/18/08 04:10 PM
If the cup of coffee you were drinking on Tuesday morning didn't wake you up, the headline on the front page of the Globe and Mail most surely did.
The headlines screamed "Housing sales hit 20-year low as real estate slump widens" followed by huge sub-head noting an 11 per cent decline in prices and a 44 per cent drop in Ontario housing sales in large RED print, based on the December 15th press release issued by the Canadian Real Estate Association.
The only problem with the article is that it is incorrect. In the third paragraph, the author writes "Between … (0 comments)

toronto condos: The Current Market, and Why It Is So Good - 12/15/08 12:22 PM
I see great opportunity in today's market for buyers and sellers (looking to trade-up). I think that the negativity presented by the media is clouding the judgment of buyers, investors, and sellers moving-up to better properties.
It is true that sellers were getting a greater return in 2007, but at the same time, were paying more on the buyer's side.
Due to super low mortgage rates (lowest in recent history), buyers and sellers (looking to trade-up to a better property) are experiencing the best market in over 10 years.
Investors and buyers dream of the current market conditions, so why all of the … (1 comments)

toronto condos: Tips For Buying Your First Condo - 08/04/08 07:59 AM
You are ready to make your first real estate purchase, but is a condo right for you? Affordability and Location First determine what you can afford. Housing costs are now more than the traditional 25 to 30 per cent of household income, so ensure your budget can accommodate this and the monthly condo fee. Consider the building itself - will you use all those amenities (pool, gym, etc.) you're paying for, which increase the monthly fee? Location, location, location is the best rule. Think long term and consider resale value. Monthly fees Know what you're buying and paying for. Owners are required … (0 comments)

toronto condos: Toronto Condo Market More Balanced As Summer Arrives - 07/07/08 04:42 AM
With summer here, the Toronto condo resale market is slowly shifting towards balance after several years of favouring sellers. There will be a 22 per cent increase in inventory, over last summer. Buyers seem to have more selection, be able to take more time to make decisions, and have a little more room for negotiation. This time last year, buyers had to make quick decisions and often had to pay over asking price.
This seems to be frustrating for sellers, that their units are staying on the market a little longer, and not commanding the bidding wars that were seen so frequently in 2007.
